Rich Wright It's Carrie!! With snakes!! Only it's complete s**t!! Yes folks, forget about school dances and buckets of pigs blood... here you have rubber vipers and hammy acting ahoy. EVERYONE is a stereotype with annoying put-on accents and awkward dialogue, while the so-called 'scary' scenes feel like something out of a bad spoof. The unfathomable truth that this was supposed to be a horror will go down as one of the great mysteries in life.Even the twee opening song is 50 Shades Of Crap. Try listening to it without your ears imploding. Does it do anything right? Well, it has an ending. That's something... right? RIGHT? 2/10

Alan Bannacheck Jennifer is a recluse at an all girl's boarding school. Unlike her fellow peers, she is from a poor farming family and because of that and her smarts, she is humiliated over and over again. When her life is threatened, she taps into an old power she once had, the power to conjure up the serpents (a few of them larger then Godzilla) to ensure her survival.A lot of reviews have been calling Jennifer a Carrie clone, however the movie goes in its own direction. Jennifer is a lot more outgoing then Carrie, who practically was a mute. When Sandra, the queen bee, accuses her of providing the answers to a test, she blatantly denies it. The parental figure of both Carrie and Jennifer are both religious zealots in their own way. Carrie's mother is more violent, while Jennifer's father goes on drunken rants.For a 1978 film I think the pacing was good up until the climax which was a mere seven minutes long. With a low budget and technical limitations, we were given hand puppets with missing eyes versus actual demonic looking snakes. The musical score hit the beat, and the cinematography was decent. This story definitely deserves a remake, in my opinion.I give it an eight out of ten, because the acting and plot were in order.The Bannachecker - Horror Encyclopdia

The_Void Anyone who knows anything about horror will have no trouble identifying Jennifer's main influence - it is, of course, Brian De Palma's Stephen King adaptation Carrie. The two share so much in common that I can't quite believe that director Brice Mack actually got away with making this film. It's not just the central premise either, things are ripped directly from Carrie wholesale; stuff like the overbearing religious single parent, the popular clique that takes a dislike to the outcast protagonist and the sensitive member of said clique that has a bit of sympathy for the outcast. The central character is, unsurprisingly, named Jennifer. Jennifer is a scholarship student at a relatively wealthy school and as such gets picked on for not having as much money as the other girls. She takes it for a while but soon the bullying is stepped up a gear and Jennifer decides that she just can't take it anymore. Luckily for her, however, she can wield a strange power over snakes and decides to use it to get her revenge.While the film is clearly a knockoff, it does have to be said that in its own right, it's actually a decent horror movie. Don't go into it expecting to be thrilled because it's very much of the slow burn variety, although it does manage to put forward some interesting characters. It's clear that it was shot on a low budget, however, and while the acting is largely decent; certain cast members are just terrible. Jeff Corey stands out in that respect as Jennifer's overbearing religious father. The central premise centres on snakes and as such you would expect the movie to feature a few of them; but actually they don't turn up properly until right near the end which is a bit of a shame. I'd have liked to have seen a bit more of a relationship between the lead character and the snakes. Jennifer is also not even nearly as big an outcast as Carrie was; she's just not weird enough and her reaction to the bullying even seems a bit extreme. Still, I wasn't particularly expecting anything great from this film and going in with expectations like that will ensure you wont be disappointed.

Art Tizon This could actually be considered a Carrie III. Sure, it may have been made before The Rage: Carrie II, but who cares? I think that Jennifer's father could have easily been the father of Carrie and Rachael. He and Carrie & Rachael's father are religious fanatics. The reason that Jennifer doesn't have telekinesis could be because her mother gave her the gift (even though the male is the carrier). Anyway, I have an idea to post a script on the internet where the siters are reincarnated as triplets and join forces.
